I haven't gotten my Camaro yet, and one of the things I've been thinking about when I'm trying to decide which color to get is exactly one thing you mentioned. Not that I'm going to abuse my car with filth, but looking good when it gets a bit dusty or dirty is important to me. I have always leaned towards white with all my past vehicles and noticed that white does a pretty good job and looking good in the desert, plus its cooler in the heat. My wife and I bought a 16' Cruze in Silver Ice last May. Had to trade in my Silverado since I drive so damn much. Great car and my first silver car. Seems to do well with dust and look good. Helps that my Cruze and future Camaro will both be garaged. I love the Hyper blue, but seems like it will show more dirt than Summit white or Silver ice. I'm curious about the Arctic Blue, but the two colors I go back and forth with are white and silver. Sorry for the long post, just drank some coffee!

I agree that silver looks better than white, I think it shows the lines better too. It's a light color but yet just dark enough that the lines on the car really pop with silver, to me the lines on white cars look washed out, almost like it's too light of a color.

I almost bought white and finally got to see one next to silver in person. The silver absolutely shows more lines. I think out of all the colors, it shows the lines the best. White is great looking car though too but silver is a solid choice.

As the others mentioned silver is is great for hiding dust, and showing the lines. Plus it's neutral enough to take on any accent color. Endless possibilities. Love that there are more cars over here now. Forum was a bit lonely for SIM until recently. Wonder how some of the dark gray and orange Fifty accents would look on our color.

Love the red under the vents. Thanks for providing details on how to do it. What type of paint did you use to paint the vents?

Quick rinseless wash before clear bra tomorrow. The lighting just made the lines pop!

Just Washed
Had the car since August but have not had a chance to take a pic while it was clean.
